Job description
We're seeking a Senior Computer Vision Engineer to work on novel perception technology at the intersection of research and deployment.
Founded in 2024 with a recently closed multi £million seed funding round, the business has a high-growth strategy that looks towards a series A in 18 months. Their technology is a real-time, high-resolution passive 3D sensor based on AI and multi-stereoscopy. For both defence and civilian use, the technology focuses on real-time 3D for supporting autonomous vehicles (UGV, UAV, USV), robotics and other such systems.
They're building a fundamentally new approach to multi-stereo perception, combining geometric methods and learning-based techniques into a deployable real-world system.
You will work directly with the CTO and AI Lead to design and implement the core geometry and perception pipeline - spanning camera calibration, multi-view correspondence, and 3D scene understanding.
The Senior Computer Vision Engineer role is deeply hands-on but also offers the opportunity to contribute to state-of-the-art applied research, with scope for publication at leading venues such as ICCV, CVPR, or NeurIPS, where appropriate.
Responsibilities:
Geometry & Multi-View Vision
- Develop and optimise multi-camera calibration and alignment pipelines
- Design algorithms for multi-view correspondence and reconstruction
- Improve system-level accuracy and robustness across configurations
Applied Research & Innovation
- Explore and implement novel approaches at the intersection of geometry and learning
- Contribute to advancing state-of-the-art perception techniques
- Collaborate on research outputs suitable for top-tier conferences (ICCV, CVPR, NeurIPS) where appropriate
System Integration
- Work closely with ML and systems engineers to integrate perception into deployable systems
- Analyse real-world performance and iterate on failure modes
- Ensure algorithms perform robustly outside controlled environments
Engineering Execution
- Translate research ideas into production-quality code
- Maintain high standards of code quality, testing, and reproducibility
Requirements
- PhD in Computer Vision, AI, Robotics, Machine Learning, or closely related field
- Strong expertise in multi-view geometry and camera calibration
- Strong experience in 3D vision / reconstruction/ SLAM
- Strong programming skills (Python, Java, C, CUDA and/or C++)
- Demonstrated ability to translate theory into working systems
- Citizenship of a NATO country (required due to project constraints)
Highly Desirable:
- Publications in top-tier venues (ICCV, CVPR, ECCV, NeurIPS, etc.)
- Experience with real-world perception systems (robotics, UAVs, automotive, defence)
- Experience combining geometric and learned approaches
We encourage applications from researchers transitioning from academia; alternatively, you may already have significant industry experience., * Are you comfortable getting into the Oxford office on a regular basis (hybrid)
- Do you have a PhD in Computer Vision / AI / Robotics
- Are you comfortable working on a product used in the military
Benefits & conditions
Job Types: Full-time, Permanent
Pay: £95,000.00-£150,000.00 per year
Benefits:
- Employee stock purchase plan
- Work from home
